Description
How can the 5E instructional model be used to support learners with different strengths, needs, and levels of readiness? What does intentional differentiation look like at each phase of a 5E lesson? The 5E model—Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate—is a research-based framework designed to promote deep conceptual understanding and student engagement. When paired with differentiation and formative assessment, the 5E model becomes a powerful tool for creating equitable learning experiences for all students. Join Keturah Mace for this practical professional learning session focused on designing and implementing differentiated 5E lesson plans. Educators will explore how to embed differentiation strategies at every phase of the 5E model, use formative assessment data to guide instructional decisions, and support diverse learners through intentional planning. Participants will leave with ready-to-use strategies and planning tools that make differentiated instruction within the 5E framework both effective and manageable.
